Abstract
In this article, a low-profile multiband asymmetrical psi-shaped antenna for different wireless applications is presented and analyzed. This multiband antenna consists of an asymmetrical psi-shaped radiator considered on a single layer FR4 substrate with compact dimensions. The better impedance matching characteristics between the radiating element and the signal source are obtained by employing a slotted structure. The designed antenna operates at six different frequency bands of 1.8-2.03 GHz &#91;GSM1800, personal communication systems (PCS)&#93;, 4.64-5.35 GHz &#91;wireless local area network (WLAN)&#93;, 6.05-6.95 GHz (C-band), 7.92-8.59 GHz (military), 9.55-11.14 GHz &#91;fixed satellite service (FSS)&#93;, and 11.57-12.29 GHz (DBS) while the S<sub>11 </sub>value is lower than -10 dB. The Ansoft HFSS 21 electromagnetic simulator is employed to optimize the antenna dimensions and study the antenna functionality at the six different frequency bands. The designed antenna exhibits higher gain at six frequency bands. The developed multiband antenna is prototyped, and test results are generated to validate its performance. The simulation results authenticate acceptable agreement with the measurement results. This antenna is a good choice for GSM1800, PCS, WLAN, C-band, FSS, and military defense applications.
